Laško - Gradišče (Pustinjak)

Access to starting point:
A) From the Ljubljana–Jesenice highway, take the Kranj–East exit, then continue driving towards Jezersko. When you arrive in Preddvor, leave the main road and continue left towards the center of the mentioned settlement; from there, follow the signs for the Bašelj settlement. When you arrive in Bašelj, at the beginning of the left bend a narrower road continues straight ahead to the parking lot at the TD Bašelj log cabin (starting point Bašelj in descriptions), but from the mentioned intersection continue along the main road for another good 100 m to the next intersection, where continue right on the road towards Gamsov raj and the Laško hamlet. About 50 m further, continue on the left road, which gradually begins to ascend moderately. At the Laško hamlet, continue left again, then the asphalt ends and continue driving on the steep macadam road, following it to the parking lot at the smaller intersection. Red mountaineering signposts are located at the intersection.
B) From the Jesenice–Ljubljana highway, take the Kranj–West exit and at the first intersection continue left. Continue through the underpass under the highway, then arrive at a roundabout, from which continue driving towards Golnik. The route continues through the settlement Mlaka pri Kranju; at the end of the settlement, continue right towards the Srakovlje settlement. This is followed by driving through Srakovlje, Spodnja Bela, Srednja Bela, Zgornja Bela (in Zgornja Bela join the road from Preddvor) to Bašelj, where the main road makes a long left bend, and straight ahead continues a narrower road to the parking lot at the TD Bašelj log cabin (starting point Bašelj in descriptions), but from the mentioned intersection continue along the main road for another good 100 m to the next intersection, where continue right on the road towards Gamsov raj and the Laško hamlet. About 50 m further, continue on the left road, which gradually begins to ascend moderately. At the Laško hamlet, continue left again, then the asphalt ends and continue driving on the steep macadam road, following it to the parking lot at the smaller intersection. Red mountaineering signposts are located at the intersection.

Path description:
From the starting point, continue on a wider macadam road (left Dom pod sv. Lovrencem and church of St. Lovrenc), which gently and transversely ascends the slopes of Gora (918 m) (Gora is the peak located above the church of St. Lovrenc). The road, which for most of the time ascends through the forest, higher passes to the slopes of Gradišče, where from the right joins the path from the valley of the Belica stream (starting point at log cabin TD Bašelj). Walk on the macadam road for another some 10 meters and you are already at the next junction, where to the left branches off another path to St. Lovrenc.
From the mentioned junction, walk on the road only a few steps, then on the right, beside the sign marking a private parking space, continue right on a trodden path, along which in a minute or two of further walking you arrive at the summit of Gradišče, where a small wooden hut stands.
